Who will be the first to dis
cover coal in paying quantities in
these hills? Don't all speak at once.
Why would it not be good idea
for the county board to offer a
bonus of $500. to any one who will
produce satisfactory evidence of
having discovered a vein Of. coal,
say "a inches in thickness? Until
something of the kind is done, no
special effort will be made to find
this much needed article. 1t viii
do no harm to offer the premium,
because if the coal is not found it
will cost the county nothing, ifitis,
there will be no charge that will be
more willingly paid by the tax
payers, because they can more than
save it in one winter. Now we sug-
gest to the board that they oifer
$500. for the discovery of "a inch
vein. 81 900 for one not less than
80 inches and 81, 500 for one 81 in.
and over. This will set men to
work, and if the article is here IL
will be found. We have telt that
there was coal in these hills, and if
by method of this kind it can be
brought to light, it would reduce
the fuel charge at least one-half,
which at the least calculation would
make difference to our citizens of
one hundred thousand dollars a
year. If by offering a big bonus
this result can be achieved, we feel
satisfied that taxpayers would be
rejoiced at the privilege of paying
it. 1t will do no harm, gentleman,
to give the matter a trial, and it
may result in a world of good.
